This directory contains utilities that help port a standard perl 5.8.4 build

directory into the ON tree and patched versions of standard perl files needed

to work around build issues.

The standard MakeMaker framework is obviously not ON-aware and we can't patch

the version we ship. The port/lib directory contains replacement MakeMaker

components that are ON-aware. We arrange for these versions to be used during

the build in preference to the standard ones by setting PERL5INC appropriately

in the environment. See the source files themselves for details of the changes

that were necessary.

This directory contains scripts and data files used to port a stock perl 5.8.4

source tree into an ON workspace. See the README in port for details.
